JOHN,
Last night, MAGA Republicans rammed through a debt ceiling deal that is a direct assault on our communities.
It loosens environmental protections, allowing corporate polluters to fast track dirty fossil fuel projects.
It adds harsh restrictions to SNAP and TANF, jeopardizing access to food and essential cash aid for vulnerable communities.
And it actually increases Pentagon spending while placing caps on services for working families.
Even as Republicans have cried crocodile tears about our country’s national debt, we’ve known all along that their cruel bill was not about limiting debt or deficits. It was about paying for even more tax cuts for the rich and corporations.
Now, as the dust settles on Republican hostage-taking, they plan to introduce a tax package in the next two weeks that makes the expiring portions of the Trump tax scam permanent. That means they passed a debt ceiling and budget deal that hurts vulnerable families—just to help pay for permanent tax cuts for the rich and corporations!
We’re fighting back and that means holding Republicans accountable to the voters who sent them to Congress.
Donate today to the Congressional Progressive Caucus PAC to win back the House of Representatives, not just with Democrats, but with progressives―and stop future deals that put the wealthy and greedy corporations ahead of the working class.
As we’ve seen time and again, not every Democrat in Congress is willing to stand up to Big Money, Big Oil, or greedy corporate interests. It’s thanks to the tireless efforts of progressives that we limited the damage done in the debt ceiling deal. And it’s how we secured much-needed investments last year in our nation’s care economy and in climate action.
Without our work, together, we would not have protected 21 million people from being kicked off of Medicaid. And we would be seeing harsh cuts instead of caps to critical programs and services. But we’ve got to keep building progressive power in Congress in order to make the transformative changes that our communities need.
The Congressional Progressive Caucus PAC is critical in electing allies who will fight by our side for environmental, racial, economic, and social justice. Rush a contribution today to fight back against MAGA extremists and grow our progressive power in Congress.
